<p>Analysing environmental events such as predicting the risk of flood is considered as a challenging task due to the dynamic behaviour of the data. One way to correctly predict the risk of such events is by gathering as much of related historical data and analyse the correlation between the features which contribute to the event occurrences. Inspired by the brain working mechanism, the spiking neural networks have proven the capability of revealing a significant association between different variables spike behaviour during an event. Personalised modelling, on the other hand, allows a personal model to be created for a specific data model and experiment. Therefore, a personalised modelling method incorporating spiking neural network is used to create a personalised model for assessing a real-world flood case study in Kuala Krai, Kelantan based on historical data of 2012-2016 provided by Malaysian Meteorological Department. The result shows that the method produces the highest accuracy among the selected compared algorithms.</p>

This chapter is an overview of the simulation of spiking neural networks that relates discrete event simulation to other approaches and includes a case study of recent work. The chapter starts with an introduction to the key components of the brain and sets out three neuron models that are commonly used in simulation work. After explaining discrete event, continuous and hybrid simulation, the performance of each method is evaluated and recent research is discussed. To illustrate the issues surrounding this work, the second half of this chapter presents a case study of the SpikeStream neural simulator that covers the architecture, performance and typical applications of this software along with some recent experiments. The last part of the chapter suggests some future trends for work in this area.
